This was such a wonderful experience. Strolling through one landscape to another. This would be such a treat for the residents of Edmonton on a cold winter's day. If I lived in Edmonton, I would have a season's pass. We were there for the spectacular daffodil display, wow.

I love the Muttart, we go there frequently and take out of town visitor there to treat them to one of the finest attractions in Edmonton. Clean, nice staff and wonderful exhibits of flowers and other plants. In the summer the grounds around the building are nice to stroll and enjoy as well as being a great place for taking... More

Hi we visited this cactus that was as tall as the pyramid (they actually had to cut 2 feet off the top as it was too tall for the pyramid). It was planted 35 years ago and started sprouting a flower stock back in August 2012 that grew 30 feet in height . What a sight it was and the... More

I had not been here for over 15 years. After cancer attack my family and win, numerous times this year, I felt going during cancer month would be wonderful. Parking was tough to find but we made it. The tropical room is my favorite everything was gorgeous. The other two seemed very similar and redundant. So we made our way... More

This attraction shows 4 large pyramids with a variety of beautiful plants in different environments and providing you lots of information about them. It looks unique as you go towards the building because they are pyramids. Unfortunately, the cost of admission does not match what you see. $5 per person much more reasonable than $40 for a family of 4.... More

My most recent visit was during the Chinese New Year and the display pyramid was appropriately themed. Orchids were abundant and the bright red and gold decorations prominent in the Chinese culture were all around. The display pyramid changes throughout the year but the other pyramids, which are dedicated to climate zones, stay mainly the same however even those vary... More

LOVE this place, even as a kid. Great displays, helpful staff. It was mostly flowers and such that time around. But it was nice to do something other then drive around the city

I enjoyed my visit to Muttart Conservatory. There were several different ecological regions to visit. They were enclosed in bio-pyramids each housing a unique set of flora for a specific region. Not extremely large but decent size for a half day visit. There is a little cafe with tasty meal items inside as well.

I will admit that the plants that are there are lovely and well maintained, the facility is clean and the staff friendly. What shocks me is that a family of four must pay upwards of $40 to enter this city run facility. My kids are 11 and 5. We were done seeing everything in less than 30 minutes. Maybe a... More
